Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See
http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have the following heading: * Example & Test When I create the following link to it, I expect it to navigate to the heading when I call org-open-at-point (C-c C-o): [[Example & Test][Example & Test]] Instead, calling org-open-at-point offers to create a new heading. If I say yes, a new heading is created, but calling org-open-at-point again on the link offers to create another heading identical to the first that was created. I have org-link-search-must-match-exact-headline set to ‘query-to-create. It appears that the ampersand is not being found in the heading search.
